The Devils' Advocate podcast co-host Gaz Drinkwater says he could be tempted to give Michael Carrick the permanent manager's role come the end of the season.
"If he gets top four, I'd give it to him," Drinkwater said on this week's episode.
"If he comes between second and fourth, he gets the job 100%.
"But if you're asking me to choose now, you're asking me to make two gambles 'will we get us top four?' and 'is Luis Enrique a better option?'
"If you asked me to make the decision right now I'd be ringing up Luis Enrique. Because I just don't know how it'll go until the end of the season.
"Carrick is proving himself. If United finish sixth, he's done enough to prove himself with the run of results we'd have had to get to be sixth - for Premier League jobs.
"For teams that are mid-table or toward the bottom of the Premier League, he's proved himself to be able to get those jobs. He's too good to be assistant manager.
"If we were to get top four - which I think we will - then I'd give him the job."
